Previously we reported on news of a Steam PS4 Linux demo video, and today OsirisX returns with a guide on how to install Steam (not SteamOS) on PlayStation 4 Linux for those interested!

You can find it below, to quote: Installing Steam on PS4 Linux

This guide is WIP and more pics will follow.

You may have seen my video running Steam on the PS4 and this tutorial will explain the procedure. Originally I intended to use Ubuntu for this guide since there's already a tutorial for that but I was having problems enabling graphics acceleration. Instead I chose Fedora which seems to work fine.

Keeping the terminal open, go back to the welcome screen and click “Install to Hard Drive”. Click on “Installation Destination” once the summary page comes up.

Select your disk and click on “I will configure partitioning” under storage options. Then click “Done”.

Once the next screen comes up, select /dev/sda2 partition on the left. Use the mount point root “/” and select “Reformat” next to File System. Then click on “Update Settings”

Click on “Done” and then “Accept Changes” when the change summary page comes up.

Finally, click on “Begin Installation” when we’re back at the summary page. At this point, you should configure your root password and user.

Before shutting down Fedora, we need to install the ps4 Radeon drivers.

Go back to the open terminal and mount the partition that you just installed Fedora to.

Code:

mount /dev/sda2 /mnt

Enable ssh server.

Code:

systemctl restart sshd

Find the ip address of your VM.

Code:

ifconfig

Use WinSCP or Filezilla from your host to transfer over ps4-radeon-rpm.zip to /mnt/tmp. (Note: If you get connection errors, you may need to set your network adapter to bridged in VirtualBox network settings)

Any1 notice that on the right hand side it shows VBOX for virtual box? this is cuz directly inside the ps4 gameos it runs virtually it's a created virtual image from a special VBOX itself that works on windows but inside of the distro I have it's also part of the image that was generated and infact does work on pc for ppc.

Ppc images can be loaded directly on windows but is mainly for Mac I used a bootstrap process to get an actual copy of linux to work so it's like Mac on linux n linux on mac

The USB is prepped on a pc via vbox, then boots native on ps4 via exploit. No image is generated for the usb it is native laylout

Read the tutorial then. I know how distros are made n we don't use vbox images these days except the official ones on console.
On the console actual gameos is using vbox itself as it's included in the rpms list with many other features used. Nothing more then a virtual system bare metal

Following their previous revision, Sony has now released a PlayStation 4 System Software / PS4 Firmware 4.07 Update which once again improves the quality of the system performance (aka patches exploit security holes).

My cable guy was just looking for a discounted PlayStation 4 bundle for the holidays, and it appears Sony has answered dropping the Uncharted 4 PS4 bundle to $249.99 from December 11 to the 24th, 2016.
